About
Ali Shemsedin Reshad is graduated in B. Sc. Degree in Chemical Engineering from Bahir Dar University, Bahir Dar, Ethiopia in July 2008. After his B.Sc. graduation, he joined Addis Ababa University, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia for his M. Tech. study in November 2008 and graduated with M. Tech. Degree in Chemical Engineering in July 2010.
After his M. Tech. graduation, he was assigned as a Lecturer by the Ethiopian Ministry of Education to work at Adama Science and Technology University in the Department of Chemical Engineering. He was involved in assisting class and laboratory sessions for undergraduate students for the year from September 2010 to June 2013. After serving department of chemical engineering for 3 years, he joined Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati for his PhD studies in Chemical Engineering Department in July 2013 and completed his PhD in 2017. His research interests include biofuels production from non-conventional oilseeds, thermochemical conversion of biomass, catalysis and reaction kinetics. He has authored three book chapters, has presented 8 conference papers, and has published 20+ articles in several reputed refereed journals. Currently, he is serving as associate professor in Department of Chemical engineering under college engineering and Head for Sustainable Energy Center of Execellence, Addis Ababa Science and Technology University, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
